They were all together in one place?: toward minority biblical criticism

Critics from three major racial/ethnic minority communities in the United States—AfricanAmerican, Asian American, and Latino/a American—focus on the problematic of race andethnicity in the Bible and in contemporary biblical interpretation. With keen eyes on bothancient text and contemporary context, contributors pay close attention to how racial/ethnicdynamics intersect with other differential relations of power such as gender, class, sexuality,and colonialism. In groundbreaking interaction, they also consider their readings alongsidethoseof other racial/ethnic minority communities. The volume includes an introductionpointing out the crucial role of this work within minority criticism by looking at its historicaltrajectory, critical findings, and future directions.
